A: Yes, we can engrave custom artwork on the front side of your lockets. You can go on www.clipart.com and choose artwork that you´d like on the front side of your locket. Then, go ahead and place your order and in the "special instructions" let us know that you´d like to engrave clipart on the front and let us know the id number and we´ll take care of it. The additional charge is $20 that we´ll add to your credit card.
If you don´t find anything on clipart.com and want something different, let us know in the "special instructions" that you´ve emailed the artwork over, and then email it to info@picturesongold.com along with your order number.

Q: Can I engrave custom characters?

A: Yes, We do accept custom characters. Please place your order and in the "special instructions" box we provide you write that you´d like to add custom characters to the front side of the locket and you´ve emailed info@picturesongold.com. Then, email the artwork to that address along with the order numberand we´ll take care of it. The additional cost is $20 that we can charge to your card.

A: It normally only takes us 1 Business day to manufacture your personalized locket. For ex: if you order your locket today, it will most likely ship tomorrow.

Q: What is the difference between color laser and laser?

A: The difference between the two is this:Color Laser - Your Photo will be lasered in Full Color. All facial tones and clothing will have all the same colors as seen on your print. If the person is wearing a blue shirt, you will actually see blue. We compare this method to a magazine print.
Laser - your photo will be lasered with more of a monotone grayscale look that resembles that of a newspaper. It gives more of a sepia tone.

Color laser and Laser are both permanent and the quality is absolutely superb.

Q: Can I insert the paper photos myself?

A: Yes, you are able to insert your own photos into the locket yourself. Every locket comes with templates that you can trace around your prints and cut out. If you run into trouble, we are always here to help.

Q: Will you change my photo and zoom in on the faces?

A: Yes, unless stated otherwise in the "special instructions" box we provide you. We normally zoom in to the head, neck, and shoulders to give a nice clear shot of your subjects. We also remove the background of the photographs.

Q: What if I don´t want a person or object in my photo, can it be removed?

A: Yes, our photoshop artists are the best there is. We will remove who or what you desire. Just let us know in the "special instructions" box we provide you.

Q: Do you only photo engrave on lockets purchased from this website, or can I send an existing locket and photo to be engraved by your company?

A: We can laser the photo in your own locket.
Here is the link to the section explaining everything:

A: Yes, You can always send your locket back to us later to have the photos lasered inside. This is great for customers who are not sure which photo the recipient would like or are not able to obtain the right photographs. We can also print the "paper photos" for you and you can easily insert them yourself.

A: Yes, our process is 100% waterproof and scratch resistant. We have the only lockets in the world that can guarantee that.

Q: I would like to order a 14k yellow gold locket. Can you explain the difference between the ordinary locket and the premium weight - is there a difference (apart from the weight). i.e. is the ordinary locket flimsy or sturdy.
Thanks

A: You´re right the main difference between the regular lockets and the premium weight locket is weight. I feel the quality of the locket is the same. We have the same guarantees on the premium weight and as the others.

Q: can you engrave on a locket i already own? or if i order one of your lockets and have only one side engraved can i get the other side engraved later?

A: Yes, we can engrave a locket you already own. Depending on the size of the locket and the metal you wish would really determine the price. 14K Yellow & White Gold cost $50 and Sterling Silver is $35. You can send your locket along with any instructions or preferences to:

Customers Reviews

"I cant even begin to explain how amazing this company is. I am in complete shock. Back in November me and my fianc's best friend was out on his sports bike when a car pulled out and hit him. The car killed him on impact. My fianc has not been the same. This was his best friend who he went from spending time with EVERY DAY to having to carry his casket. I wanted to do something special for Valentines for him to remember his friend, but I unfortunately waited until last minute. I decided to take a chance and order him this pendant with a photo of our friend on his bike doing a wheelie with an amazing guardian angel poem engraved on the back. I ordered this on Tuesday 2/11 at 2 pm. I had the pendent ON MY DOORSTEP by Wednesday 2/12 by 3pm. When I opened the box I seriously could have cried. When I say it was the most beautiful pendant I have seen, I truly mean it. My fianc said it was the most amazing and special gift he has ever received. Not only that, but its almost like his sadness was uplifted. He says, Now he is with Ryan forever and he can feel it. The only thing different about our pendant then the photo is we were able to add a stone into the bale, which added such an amazing touch. I am likely going to be ordering quite a few things from this site. Again, just an amazing quality and turn around time."-- Gianna

"OMG... I am so pleased on the pics on the locket. I appreciate the time delivery "ordered the 11th(late in the day) delivery on the 13th". Thank you so much "precious first moments"."-- Iris

"I got a beautiful floral cross locket for my mother since shes never had much jewelry. I went all out, spending half a grand on solid gold and the best chain. So far, I have no complaints. The locket came in two business days and was absolutely gorgeous. The chain is so thin Im a little doubtful of its strength. However, with a lifetime warranty, Im not overly worried about that. My mother was very pleasantly surprised to find out that all of the deliberations on which locket was prettier was really for her sake and not my own. She loved the laser engraved photos as well as the quote on the back. It makes me happy to see her with such a pretty locket and Im glad I had the means to finally pamper her with something she couldnt have before. After caring for me for 18 years its the least I can do to bring her joy in any way possible. Thank you, Pictures On Gold, for being one of those ways."-- Grace

"This Locket is everything and more, great quality my parents picture fits perfect, you all did a wonderful job. my daughter will be one happy bride on her wedding day because of Pictures on Gold."-- Crystal

"I want to sincerely thank you for the amazing job you did on my locket. I received it today and it is absolutely beautiful. I lost my fur baby Ozzie on 3/10/19 and wanted to find a locket to put around my neck, keeping him close to my heart. When I stumbled upon your website, not only did I find the perfect locket but also the ability to have his picture put inside. Jackie was a pleasure to deal with and your instructions on how to order couldn't have been any easier. I will highly recommend you to all and will go no where else for a special keepsake. Thank you for everythingand I look forward to doing business with you in the future Sincerely, Donna"-- Donna

"I had ordered a heart pendant, for my sister in law, with pictures (both sides) of her son (my nephew) who recently unexpectedly passed away and IT IS JUST BEAUTIFUL Exactly what your website indicated how it would look and it came out perfectly. More than met my expectations.....had to show it off to my coworkers who said it was absolutely beautiful......BEAUTIFULLY DONE. THANK YOU SO MUCH....Roberta and family"-- Roberta

"I just received my orders....I LOVE THEM I am a returning customer and the workmanship is superb I bought your bracelets....and the charms are so well made My daughter will love her new bracelet....I am already loving mine"-- Patti

"I just received a heart locket and chain I ordered for a friend who's grandmother recently passed away. I was absolutely amazed on how well the engraving and color laser picture came out. The ordering process was so easy and delivery was quick. Needless to say my friend and I cried and embraced when I presented this gift to her. Hopefully it gave her some comfort knowing she can now keep her Grandma close to her heart. I will definitely recommend Pictures on Gold to friends and family. Thank you so much"-- Julie

"I purchased the heart shaped charm with a necklace and I received my order within TWO DAYS (even with free shipping) and it is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL A+ service and Five star rating for me"-- Darlene

"I very seldom give reviews, but felt compelled to do so with pictures on gold. The customer service is exceptional If you are not satisfied with your order no questions asked you will get a refund if that's what you request, and because of that I have come back 3x. I have requested a refund in past orders and have received it, and have come back to do business with this company. My last order was better than I expected, a build your locket, and was beautiful. This is the kind of company I want to do business with, they stand behind their product and workmanship"-- Susn
